SRG Government Services
Senior Cyber Security Operator with Security Clearance
SRG Government Services, Cheyenne, Wyoming, United States, 82007
Overview
Join a team where you\'ll work alongside cybersecurity operators, former special forces members, and elite–level engineers on high impact, often undisclosed projects that secure some of the critical networks in the nation. We are seeking a talented and motivated Cyber Security Operator to join our client\'s team. The successful candidate will be part of a team that will support critical cybersecurity operations within highly secure environments. This role offers the opportunity to work on advanced network defense strategies, with a unique focus on passive vulnerability analysis: a specialized and low–impact method of identifying risks without active scanning. You\'ll play a key role in detecting anomalies, analyzing complex systems, and strengthening network security for high–value missions.
Responsibilities
Ensure the safe and proper functional operation of the toolkit and its components.
Collect and document measures of performance per approved CONOPS.
Analyze and document behaviors, characteristics, and attributes of a network\'s baseline activity within steady–state operations.
Analyze and investigate potential anomalies or outliers from established baseline.
Analyze and identify misconfigurations, faults, and vulnerabilities within the network\'s architecture, subcomponents, and utilized communication protocols.
Determine root source of anomalies and extent of vulnerable findings for validation with system users and administrators.
Document and report anomalies to appropriate channels for further investigation and notification.
Document vulnerable findings and provide recommendations through appropriate channels that increase both security and operational capacity of the respective network.
Recommend improvements to current operations for potential incorporation into the overall program.
Collaborate with cross–functional teams to support incident response, system hardening, and policy development as needed.
Additional duties, as assigned.
5–10% CONUS Travel.
Qualifications
Active TS clearance with SCI eligibility required.
Bachelor\'s or Master\'s degree in technical field such as computer science or cybersecurity; additional direct operational experience may be considered in lieu of degree.
8+ years of cybersecurity operations or analysis required.
3+ years of experience in passive vulnerability detection techniques required.
Minimum IAT Level II certification as defined and described in DoDD 8570.01, 8570.01–M, 8140.01–03 and as amended (such as Sec+ or equivalent) required.
CSSP Auditor certification is required.
Must have experience supporting DoD or Intelligence Community networks.
Practical experience with firewalls, network TAPs, IDS/IPS, endpoint protection, and other network defense technologies.
Adept in evaluating network protocols utilizing network analyzers, such as Wireshark, Tshark, and tcpdump.
Experienced in analyzing network datasets, including Zeek and firewall logs, to support threat hunting and security investigations.
Experienced in leveraging data analysis platforms, such as Splunk, Kibana, and Arkime, to detect and analyze anomalous network activity.
Proficient in triaging Suricata alerts, tuning rules, and creating custom detections.
In–depth understanding of network vulnerabilities and misconfigurations.
Experience working within the framework of a CONOPS or similar operational document.
Awareness of DoD cybersecurity frameworks (e.g., RMF, CMMC, NIST 800–53) and their application in secure system design and monitoring.
Knowledge of common enterprise network architectures and defense mechanisms.
Experienced in analyzing TCP/IP, DNS, HTTP/S, SSL/TLS, SMB, and RDP protocols to identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and indicators of malicious activity.
